An all-round show by Gurinder Sandhu helped Sydney Thunder clinch a one-wicket win over Melbourne Stars in the opening match of the Big Bash League (BBL) in Canberra on Tuesday.
He'll primarily fill in for Tanveer Sangha, who has yet to play this season due to a stress fracture in his back. Qadir is Thunder's fourth overseas player, joining Alex Hale, Rilee Rossouw, and Fazalhaq Farooqi on a team that can field three in the playing eleven.
The 22-year-old made a compelling statement during the recent ICC World T20 Cup by bowling fearlessly against the Australians in Adelaide. Farooqi finished with 2-29 after capturing the prized wickets of Cameron Green and Matt Wade. Farooqi, who has played seven ODI matches and 17 T20 internationals, has also played in the Indian Premier League and the Lanka Premier League
